I have questions. Was there a time Shazam fought the planet back in the day? The planet had a face? The face needed teeth?

This happened in the 1953 story “Captain Marvel Battles the World,” by Otto Binder and CC Beck.

Fed up with humans taking advantage of its natural resources and wanton pollution, Earth begins acting up with natural disasters in order to rid itself of humanity. Captain Marvel does his best to fight back, but only convinces Earth with some help from the moon that it’s lucky to have even have life at all — and that heroes like Captain Marvel will do their best to protect it.

The Fawcett era Captain Marvel stories as a whole were a lot more whimsical than modern DC audiences may be used to. After all, this is the series that gave us Tawky Tawny.

Nice. Thanks. You’re brilliant. We could use a bit more whimsical these days.

LMAO, that’s some Captain Planet level whacky environmentalism, right there!

Also… I hate how that’s still topical and still a huge issue getting close to a century later… :facepalm_batman: Humans never learn…

Yeah. Same issue is perfectly relevant exactly seventy years on. Nuts.

Which Balloon Do You Steal First? #poll

in honor of Batman 1989’s 32nd and 11.7/12ths anniversary, which of the Joker’s parade balloons is your favorite?

like Helios, though we cannot see his golden chariot as he pulls the sun across the sky, we know it’s by his actions that the sun makes it heavenly transit; so, too, do we know that when a universe dies in fiery holocaust, WingsOfAether was there

You must have missed the follow-up to the Just Imagine…Stan Lee Creating The DC Universe books, titled “Just Imagine…A Living Planet with Teeth, and How Big Its Toothbrush Must Be!”

The Jim Lee interiors on that one were :kissing: :pinched_fingers:t2:!
